資訊通信科技與群體性事件對中國後極權主義之影響

A Study of the Impact of Information & Communication Technology (ICT) and Mass Incidents on the Post-Totalitarian China

本文主要的問題意識如下：資訊通信科技在中國發展的概況為何？資訊通信科技與群體性事件的結合，賽博空間與實體空間中的言論與批評、訊息與資源的傳輸與交換，以及集體的串聯與行動，對中共後極權主義的統治有什麼影響？群體性事件的定義、類型與發展狀況為何？中共制定哪些政策、法規，發展什麼技術，企圖控制賽博空間的言論？群體性事件的參與者如何運用資通科技，在賽博空間中發表言論、提出批評、傳布訊息，並在實體空間中集結行動，或是在賽博空間、實體空間之中與之間交互穿梭，參與社會抗議與社會運動？中共採取什麼措施與策略，因應並反制？國家機器與群體性事件的參與者在賽博空間虛擬與實體空間中的對抗與攻防，對歐美社會運動的理論與中國後極權主義的轉型有什麼意涵？

In this paper, the author tries to explore the following research questions: What are the impacts of information and communication technology (ICT) and mass incidents on the post-totalitarian rule in China? To what extent has ICT been developing in Chin? What are the definitions and types of mass incidents in China? What regulations and measures have been adopted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to control the discourses in cyberspace and suppress the mass incidents in physical space? How did the participants of mass incidents utilize ICT devices to communicate and coordinate their collective action in physical space? What theoretical implications can we derive from the explorative study regarding the theories of collective behavior and social movement, on the one hand, and the researches on the post-totalitarianism in China, on the other?
